New TrueAnon Rule: Never entrust the US Treasury with more than you can afford to lose.
Well EU is not far behind. But yes, if you damage country by attacking it and literally erasing towns in it, and capturing territory (the one you guaranteed to preserve and even defend by previous agreements), expect to pay.
Oh weird, pretty sure that's not how the west is responding to Israel bulldozing Gaza right now.
Wait, are you telling me US will be paying reparations to all the countries it bombed to the ground? Vietnam, Laos, DPRK, Afghanistan, Iraq, just to name a few?
Which territory US captured or wanted to capture?
Especially when invading your neighbouring countries.
It's true, I still remember when the rest of the world put those heavy sanctions on us for our barbaric and genocidal invasion of Iraq. It was tough, but that was the day I learned that international law is definitely a real thing.
